Abstract: In general, this disclosure describes techniques for hierarchical management of co-location facility assets and permissions. For example, techniques are described for managing permissions for sub-customer access to reseller assets of a co-location facility, where the sub-customers are customers of the reseller. The techniques as described herein may, as a result, enable customers that become resellers to assign assets of the cloud exchange and manage sub-customer permissions to those assigned assets, including sub-customer orderings and/or access of assets associated with one or more geographically distinct co-location facilities and port-level assets.

Abstract: An illumination module includes a plurality of Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs). The illumination module may include a reflective color converting element with a PTFE layer and a color converting layer fixed to the PTFE layer. The color converting layer includes phosphor particles embedded in a polymer matrix and has a thickness that is less than five times an average diameter of the phosphor particles. The illumination module may include a transmissive color converting element. The color converting elements may be produced by mixing a polymer binder with a solvent and phosphor particles to form a homogeneous suspension of the phosphor particles. The homogeneous suspension is applied to a surface to form an uncured color converting layer, which is heated to vaporize the solvent.

Abstract: Systems, devices and methods are described for determining attributes identifying media items from other media items. A first video sequence of a first media item is received from a media source, the video sequence including one or more images having first banner information embedded therein. The attributes of the first media item are determined. The determined attributes of the first media item can then be stored or otherwise processed as desired.

A first video sequence of a first media item is received from a media source, the video sequence including one or more images having first banner information embedded therein. The attributes of the first media item are determined based on at least the first banner information extracted from the first video sequence. The determined attributes of the first media item can then be stored or otherwise processed as desired.

Abstract: An impeller system with split impeller configuration between adjacent turbine wheels for synchronizing their thermal response is provided. Exemplary embodiments include a turbomachine having a turbine, a compressor and a rotor disposed between the turbine and the compressor, and an impeller system. An impeller system includes a turbomachine wheel, and another turbomachine wheel disposed adjacent to the first turbomachine wheel, a rabbet joint defined between the first and second turbomachine wheels and a split impeller disposed on the first and second turbomachine wheels.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes receiving a request to provision a first customer interface to a service instance, and identifying a resource capacity for a resource associated with a service controller of a system. A determination is made as to whether a sum of resource requirements for a first set of customer interfaces that does not include the first customer interface exceeds the resource capacity. The method further includes provisioning the first customer interface to the service instance if it is determined that the sum of the customer instance resource requirements does not exceed the resource capacity.

Abstract: A heat spreader having at least two adjoining strips of pyrolytic graphite material is made by cutting a strip from a sheet of pyrolytic graphite in the z direction. Thermal conductivity in the xy plane of the graphite sheet is greater than in the z direction. The z direction cut provides strips which are then each individually oriented 90 degrees such that the thickness direction of the original pyrolytic graphite sheet becomes the width or length of the cut strip. A face on the side of a first strip adjoins a face on the side of a second strip. Due to the greater thermal conductivity in the xy plane of the strips as compared to in the z direction heat transfers more rapidly in the length and thickness direction of the strips than across adjoining sides of the oriented strips.

Abstract: A method of sharing audio/visual content is presented. In the method, the audio/visual content is received from an audio/visual content source at an audio/visual content receiver by way of a content channel selection resource of the receiver, and stored therein. A message is transmitted from the receiver to a communication node, wherein the message indicates that the audio/visual content is available for viewing by a selected user. The communication node notifies the selected user of the message by way of a communication device associated with the selected user. In response to receiving a request for the audio/visual content from the communication device, the communication node facilitates a communication connection between the receiver and the communication device. The audio/visual content is transmitted from the receiver to the communication device over the communication connection. At the communication device, the audio/visual content is then presented to the selected user.

Abstract: Novel aluminate-based green phosphors are disclosed having the formula M1?xEuxMg1?yMnyAlzO[(x+y)+3z/2]; where 0.1<x<1.0; 0.1<y<1.0; 0.2<x+y<2.0; and 2?z?14; wherein M is selected from the group consisting of Ba, Sr, Ca, and Zn; and wherein the phosphor is configured to absorb UV and visible radiation having a wavelength ranging from about 220 to 440 nm, and emit visible green light having a wavelength ranging from about 500 to 550 nm. A novel feature of the present aluminate-based green phosphors is the relatively narrow range of wavelength over which they can be configured to emit; in one embodiment, this range is from about 518 nm to 520 nm. In an alternative embodiment, the phosphor emits visible light with a peak wavelength having a full width at half maximum of less than or equal to about 40 nm in some embodiments, and 80 nm in other embodiments.
